The details
Hamamelis Virginiana Extract comes from the witch hazel plant. Unless it is specified to be non-alcohol, many types of witch hazel ingredients are distilled in denatured alcohol . Witch Hazel has astringent, anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, and antibacterial properties. The tannin content of witch hazel constrict the appearance of pores by drying out proteins. Witch hazel water gets anti-inflammatory and antibacterial properties from its catechin and gallic acid content. However, witch hazel may be skin-sensitizing due to the tannin and fragrance compounds. North American Indigenous groups have used witch hazel to help treat inflammation for centuries.
